Hypocrites come in all shapes and sizes. And when it comes to politics, hypocrisy is just part of the game. But the press only tends to cover half the story. For decades, the American people have benefited from the media's meticulous investigation of hypocrisy among conservative leaders. Meanwhile, liberal hypocrisy gets a free pass.

But not any more.

These days, you can't turn on the television or open a newspaper without finding liberal politicians, professors, pop stars, and pundits blaming the world's problems on America's free enterprise system, its democratic tradition, and its core values of individualism and self-reliance. But how sincere are they about their beliefs? How do they live? The answers will shock you.

In a film that will forever change how we see America and its leaders, filmmakers Nicholas Tucker and Lucas Abel take us on an unforgettable journey through a political landscape filled with hypocrites and humbugs. Along the way, they reveal a disturbing national truth: that the two-faced mantra do as I say, not as I do has become the unwritten golden rule of some of our most prominent liberal leaders.

Former vice president Al Gore has won an Academy Award and a Nobel Peace Prize for his crusade against global warming. But while he insists that average Americans must slash their carbon footprint or face a planetary catastrophe, Gore still flies around the world in a private jetand burns thirty
thousand dollars' worth of electricity and natural gas each year in his Nashville mansion.

During her presidential campaign, Senator Hillary Clinton declared war on mortgage lending abuses. But she didn't remind voters that she and her husband were once involved in a predatory lending scheme that took advantage of teachers, farmers, laborers, and other ordinary Americans, leaving them with no equity and nothing to show for the money they invested. In fact, more than half the people who spent their savings buying land from the Clintons in Whitewater never received a property deed.

Filmmaker Michael Moore, a self-styled working-class boy from Flint, Michigan, claims never to have owned a single share of stock. But don't be fooled by his scruffy jeans and baseball cap. Moore, who lives in a lavish lakeside mansion with Eminem and Kid Rock as neighbors, owns a sizable investment portfolio through his foundationincluding stock in Halliburton, Pfizer, Merck, Tenet Healthcare, and other companies he vilifies in his films.

Senator Ted Kennedy, enemy of tax shelters and vocal advocate of the estate tax, maintains an elaborate network of trusts and foundations to ensure that his own wealth will pass on to his heirs largely tax-free. Kennedy is also an avid environmentalistas long as he doesn't have to make any personal sacrifices. He strongly opposes the nation's first offshore wind-energy project because it would interfere with his sailing hobby.

MIT professor Noam Chomsky is famed for denouncing free markets, private enterprise, and the American government. But he doesn't come cheaphe charges $12,000 for each speaking engagement. His books berating capitalism have become hot commodities in their own right. And despite his oft-stated opposition to the U.S. military, property rights, and tax havens for the wealthy, he has turned a tidy profit as a Defense Department consultant, owns two million-dollar homes, and has set up an irrevocable trust to protect his sizable fortune for his heirs.

These figures and many like them populate Tucker and Abels Do As I Say, an eye-opening exposé of the thinly veiled hypocrisy defining some of today's leading liberal figures. Based on Peter Schweizers bestselling book, this funny, fast-paced film reveals how icons of the left have fully embraced capitalist ideals while simultaneously discouraging others from doing the same.

To make the film, Tucker and Abel drove across the country on a quest for hypocrites in liberal clothing. An intrepid two-man investigative team, they traveled to Michigan to confront Michael Moore about his Halliburton and Honeywell stock, talked politics with college students at UC Berkeley, visited Arkansas to reconstruct the Clintons shady real-estate dealings, and searched for the Pentagon employee who signed Noam Chomskys paychecks. Living lean on a shoestring budget, single-mindedly hunting for answers, Tucker and Abel took their camera where no hypocrite wants it to go.

The results are enough to compel millions to choose between their ideals and their leaders. Because if there is one thing Americans cant abide, its a hypocrite.

Do As I Say will be in theaters soon!
